Determine the rockets kinetic energy


A rocket of 100 kg moves radially outwards from the Earth at a speed of around 4 km/s when its engine shuts off 200 km over the surface of Earth.

(i) Supposing no air drag, determine the rocket’s kinetic energy if it is 1000 km over the surface of Earth.

(ii) Determine what maximum height over the surface is reached by the rocket?
